SummaryEdit

The Xindi Council continues to monitor Enterprise's advance through the Delphic Expanse and debates whether to develop a bioweapon to be used instead of Degra's superweapon.

Meanwhile, Enterprise has arrived at a floating bazaar on the Xanthan homeworld to secure the formula for liquid, synthesized Trellium D to insulate the ship hull against spatial anomalies within the Delphic Expanse. While looking for this commodity, they come across a beautiful slave woman named Rajiin who is invited back to Enterprise.

The Trellium D Plotline Edit

The liquid Trellium D formula is purchased from B'Rat Ud in exchange for a variety of 'exotic' spices, including black pepper, paprika, mustard ceed, and one Trip is partial to, Cayenne.

Trip and Malcolm Reed are warned by B'Rat Ud to follow the protocols precisely as liquid Trellium D is highly unstable. Upon returning to the ship with the Trellium D recipe, T'Pol recommends synthesizing the compounds on E deck, within the emergency bulkheads.

T'Pol and Trip's first attempt results in a major explosion in their work space, which they narrowly avoid by exiting the door moments before.

Rajiin's Plotline Edit

While at the Bazaar, Captain Archer talks to Zjod, the owner of a sex-slave shop. Zjod tries to sell him a slave, but as Archer leaves, one of Zjod's slaves, Rajiin, runs after him. Archer fights with Zjod, and Rajiin is brought on board Enterprise.

Archer speaks with Rajiin over a meal, asking what she knows about the Xindi, however she does not provide much information. He grants her access to explore the ship, sans Restricted Areas.

Rajiin later returns to talk to Archer to repay him for his kindness. Archer informs her they have located her home world of Oran'taku, only two days away. She states she doesn't remember the place, but wants to thank him, and kisses him. While Archer recovers from said kiss, Rajiin proceeds to scan him with her hands, giving the audience an inside out view of Archer. Once her scan appears to be complete, she snaps him out of what appears to be a day dream, or trance, and exits his quarters

Rajiin later explores Enterprise's transporter room, where she meets Hoshi Sato. Rajiin says she's looking for the mess hall which Hoshi states she's heading for. Rajiin asks what Hoshi does, to which she replies "Communications Officer". A look passes between the two, and Hoshi seductively states that she'd love to hear Rajiin's language.

T'Pol is startled to find Rajiin entering her quarters, Rajiin claiming that the door was open. She starts to seduce T'Pol physically and mentally, scanning through her head and spine, but the Vulcan shows some resistance. Rajiin knocks out T'Pol, and when Trip Tucker arrives she attacks him as well. However, he remains conscious and alerts the entire ship. Rajiin is soon thrown in the brig. Archer demands to know what she was doing. She tells him that the Xindi want information on Humans for a bioweapon.

The Xindi-Reptilians attack Enterprise, boarding the ship and taking Rajiin away with them so that they can use her biometric scans to construct the bioweapon. They escape through a subspace vortex, leaving only one Reptilian corpse and rifle.

Rajiin goes before the Council, which is furious at the Reptilians' unauthorized actions. She uploads the data necessary to create the bioweapon. She tries to state that there is more to Humans than they realize, but Commander Dolim orders her away. The rest of the Council fears that the Xindi are now more vulnerable than ever.
